I've done a search and could not find similar questions.. I have to install SQL Server 2008 Standard on a new server where we need to deploy some .NET 4.0 applications.
My question is: do I need to install .NET 3.5 SP1, then SQL Server 2008 and at the end .NET 4.0? I mean, Is it mandatory to install .NET 3.5 SP1 because SQL Server 2008 cannot work directly with .NET 4.0?
THANKS
SQL Server 2008 R2 requires .NET 3.5 SP1. If you don't already have that installed, install it.
After that, I would move on to installing SQL Server 2008. If you're missing pre-requisites you should install them.
After you get everything straightened out there, I would install .NET 4.0 last (if it's not already on the server). Honestly, though, it shouldn't matter if you install SQL Server 2008 R2 or .NET 4.0. Both orders should work equally as well.
Even though you install .NET Framework 4, sql server installer still ask you to install .NET Framework 3.5. If you install sql server 2008 Standarc in windows server 2008 R2, .NET Framework 3.5 is already built in with windows. Just go to server manager, click Add Feature and enable it. After that, you can install SQL Server 2008.

I am getting an error while installing SQL Server 2008. The error is like
SQLServer SetUp requires .NetFramework 3.5 to be installed
But .NET framework 3.5,SP1,VS2008 sp1 is already installed. I have checked in control panel also.
Because of this error I am not able to do daily tasks.
Please help me, where am going wrong?
Even though you install .NET Framework 3.5
sql server installer still ask you to install .NET Framework 3.5.
If you install sql server 2008 Standard ed in windows -server 2008 R2, .NET Framework 3.5 is already built in with windows.
Just go to server manager, click Add Feature and enable it. After that, you can install SQL Server 2008.
This bug had already reported to microsoft see here.
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/354980/sql-server-2008-setup-requires-microsoft-net-framework-3-5
and solution that helped was
The setup has been successfully completed after installation of .NET 3.5 Service Pack 1 (BETA) and Windows Installer 4.5. It was also nessary to install PowerShell after that.
Go ahead and download the required software and then try again installing.
I had the same problem.
In the installation folder you have some files and three folder (ia64, x64, x86). When I copied the installation folder of SQL Server 2008 I excluded the ia64 and x64 folder.
The solution that worked for me was to not exclude the x64 folder. Maybe it is possible you have missing files. I would download or copy the installation files again!
i trying to install sql server 2008 using wix3.5
i tried the below link to install .Net framework 3.5 and 4.0 its working fine.
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/install_dotnet.htm
<BootstrapperFile Include="SQL Server 2008 Express">
<ProductName>SQL Server 2008</ProductName>
</BootstrapperFile>
same way i trying for using the sql server 2008 installation using above code, but its not working, any idea where i done wrong.
For SQL Server 2008 Express you need to include Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.10.0":
<BootstrapperFile Include="Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.10.0">
<ProductName>SQL Server 2008</ProductName>
</BootstrapperFile>
Note: My example came from my installation using Visual Studio 2010 (Windows SDK 7.0a). The include is likely Microsoft.Sql.Server.Express.9.2 for VS 2008, but I have no way of verifying this right now.
Have an option to choose either a windows SE or Web Edition to install, for my Web based application built on Asp.Net 3.5 Framework.
Question: Have noticed in some blogs they mentioned that, we cannot install SQL Server 2008 on a WebEdition. Is that true?
Mainly - it is not true, you can install STandard, Developer, Express, Enterprise (and may be Datacenter) editions of SQL Server # Web edition of Windows Server 2008
You need something unusual?
I am assuming you mean SQL Server 2008 R2, if so it can be installed on a web edition but you need a special version of SQL Server 2008 R2.

I need to create a setup package that will not install SQL Server 2008 R2, a sample database, data and .Net 3.5 SP1 along with a setup installation.
I am using Visual Studio 2008. How do i do this?
Is it possible to install the full version, not express from setup package?
You can add other installers to setup packages; however it isn't normally customary to include one for SQL Server for the following reasons:
1, What if they have a different version installed (i.e. you are installing SQL Standard and they already have SQL Enterprise available)?
2, What if they have a SQL server installed on another server that they wish to use?
3, In a couple of years time Microsoft release the next version of SQL server and your software is still installing SQL Server 2008?
For the sample database and data just add the SQL in as a resource and get the app to run the script on first execution.
In the upcoming release of Sql Server 2008 R2 (aka Sql Server 2010) can I write:
a) SSRS Extensions (eg Custom Authentication) against the .Net 4.0 runtime?
b) Sql Server CLR procedures in .Net 4.0?
Thanks,
Dan
It appears not according to a post by Doug Holland.
Work does appear to be happening to ensure that SQL 2008 (Express at least) will install on a machine with .NET 4.0, but even then it still only uses the 2.0 CLR.
